This week, NBC’s Sunday Night Football will be in the Steel City for the AFC North blood rivalry game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers. NBC loves showing this game every year and 2012 is no exception. In the first opportunity to flex, NBC and the NFL chose to keep Ravens-Steelers in place and not opt for another game in primetime.
We have NBC’s preview for you below.
